Re: How should I play the turn here?
You have a relatively low TP with a mediocre kicker - so pot control is most important here.
I would check the flop. Betting on the turn, after you had two callers on the flop is not good - you feed a pot and commit yourself to it in a situation that is unclear - it is not unlikely you are behind here and play OOP. So checking that turn is imperative. |

I like the line, I think we have the best hand on the turn a very large % of the time & so I like the bet. River fold is definitely good, he's shoving pot into 2 players one of which has overcalled twice & hasnt spoken on river, so he is bluffing very very rarely.

I thought if I checked the turn and BB checks what I thought was a draw it opens up the button to price me out of seeing the river if he decides to. I figure now in hindsight a bit smaller block bet may be right. (Sorry further discusing I appreciate the feedback obv)

Re: How should I play the turn here?
I like the lead out at the flop as I think any pair calls you. That said, after 2 callers I would check/call the turn to keep the pot smaller -- it's not really that draw heavy (J9 and 75, aren't necessarily huge in their ranges and you can't just put them on flush draws) so I don't really mind giving a free card.
As played on the river it's an easy fold since a lot of hands got there (including 2 pair type hands although I think this is mostly a straight). |

Re: How should I play the turn here?
Lev is right, I agree that most pairs and all sorts of other stuff we are ahead of will call the flop bet, but that doesn't mean it's a good idea. We're OOP against 2 opponents with TP and a marginal kicker on a fairly coordinated flop. Our RIO suck and we need to be thinking pot control from the beginning.
